EDITH CAVELL.

[To TRH- EDITOR OF TRH " SI•ECTATO11,1 have just read the letter of sympathy from the women of France to tha women of England on the execution Of Edith Cavell. A statue will almost certainly be erected to her memory. Can we not have a monument to the double memory of ,lean d'Are and Edith Cavell P Centuries divide them; yet they are- twin sisters in spirit, each sacrificing her life for her country. Britain admires the Maid of Orleans, even as France does. Such a statue would be an enduring memorial to the alliance between our nations, and appeal to the best sentiments of both.—I am, Sir, &e.,
